Highams Park lies on the Greenwich Meridian, about ten miles from St Paul¿s Cathedral and three-quarters of a mile from the North Circular Road. Finding it on a map, however, is not easy. The location of the old hamlet of Hale End is even more elusive, but many local residents who contributed to this book have never been in any doubt that they live in a vital comunity with an identity of its own. This eminently readable and well-illustrated book is written by an author whose research included interviews with many of those residents. Charmingly written and presented, this book will appeal to residents and social historians alike.Dunhill, Mary is the author of 'History of Highams Park & Hale End ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781860773334 and ISBN 1860773338.
